N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)cyclohexane-1,4-diamine, of formula (I), is a new compound that is prepared by hydrogenation with Raney nickel catalyst of N,N'-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-cyclohexane-1,4-diamine, the latter being prepared by reaction between 1,4-cyclohexanediamine and acrylonitrile. The oral administration to genetically alcoholic rats (from the strain UChB of the University of Chile) of the tetrametanesulfonate monohydrate of (I) causes a significant reduction in the alcohol consumption. The activity lasts for some time after the treatment period. Besides, there is a virtually null disulfiram-like adverse effect, what constitutes an advantage over the unpleasant use of some anti-alcoholism agents, such as calcium cyanamide or disulfiram itself. Therefore, the compounds of the invention are useful for the preparation of medicaments for the therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment of alcoholism in mammals, including human beings.
化合物N,N'-双(3-氨基丙基)环己烷-1,4-二胺,化学式为(I),是一种新的化合物,通过Raney镍催化剂对N,N'-双(2-氰乙基)环己烷-1,4-二胺进行氢化制备而成,后者是由1,4-环己二胺和丙烯腈反应制备而成。将(I)的四甲烷磺酸单水合物口服给遗传性酗酒大鼠(来自智利大学的UChB品系),可显著减少饮酒量。该活性在治疗期后持续一段时间。此外,几乎没有二硫化物样的不良反应,这是与某些抗酒精药物(如氰胺钙或二硫化物本身)的不愉快使用相比的优势。因此,本发明的化合物可用于制备治疗和/或预防哺乳动物,包括人类酗酒症的药物。
